Had something very odd happen in Skyrim but not image corruption while using the 13.2 beta 3s.
The screen flickered black while heading in the directioin of Winterhold from Dawnstar in a blizzard, then the frames dropped a bit and vsync shut off.

Carried on, frames started to comeback to normal but there was still screen tearing.
While this was going on the fans started to ramp up too.

For three minutes I kept pushing my way east and again the screen flickered black, then vsync came back on and fans went back to normal speed.

It was almost as if the drivers were going to crash.

Once I had done my thing at Windhelm, I walked back through where the situation occured and nothing.
Smooth as butter.

So all I can put it down to is a beta bug since I have never had this issue happen in Skyrim before.

I think both have the same max, albeit lower resolutions have higher max refresh rates.

strange My Acer P243W on DVI-D can go 1920x1200 75hz and is limited to 60hz when plugged on DVI-I... weird ... and since it bug hard when 1920x1200 60hz i got some surprise (decaying image ... blackscreen "input not supported" and such...

oh well with EDID override patch + CRU i can force 1920x1200 75hz but only on DVI-D and its the only setup stable with that one ... (reference : my signature xD now i know why it was sold so low)

Then again, it should still be under the XFX "forever" warantee, I should check!

good point, but last time i contacted XFX support - they wanted me to RMA my GPUs just because I wanted to replace the TIM on the heatsink and dismantle the cooler for a good dusting.

Im beginning to hate companies that have different warranties for different regions. They allow coolers to be removed in the South Americas without voiding warranty but doing the same thing here in Europe voids warranty. What sort of bullshit is this?
